Danielle is out, pretty predictable. I was hoping they wouldnt boot her but I cant actually begrudge someone making their smartest move. We were obv f2 allies for a very long time, and I'm shocked e made all the way to the f5 before someone thought to split us up.
So, I'm alone now. Boo isn't as pissed off as he was acting yesterday, though obviously we've not going to lovingly dance to the f2 together anymore. I'm fine with that, really. As far as this game goes I don't care about that broken alliance... I just don't want him mad at me when this ends. I like the guy.
We might still work together, but that'll be strained for the rest of this game at the least.
Easier said than done. Benry is a fucking immunity machine. I hate it. I'm sure he's not a smug douche outside the game. We'd possibly get along. But right now.... yeaahh no. I don't like him. I smite him every chance I get, pretty much. He's obnoxious and he's scared of letting up being immune. He cant be vulnerable. He'll wither up. He'll die. It's such an annoying way to play.
He's smart, he's a decent strategist... but the guy for as much as he understands, strategically, what he needs to have happen, doesnt have the social skills or control to do what he wants to effectively. He doesnt know what strings to pull; he doesnt understand how to talk to people. He's not the only one, really. Danielle is far better, socially, but shes way too nice to really master the art of lying and manipulating. She can do it if shes mad enough, but shes not very... slick, I guess.
I'd honestly love to go one-on-one against Benry in finals. It's like.... my dream, honestly. I have so many things he does I'd like to tell him where to shove, and I think it would be interesting to match off against him. His side's golden boy vs me.
Earl would be a great match-up, too. His childish excuses are such a cover, and I'd love to see him once he gives up the ghost and speaks his mind. Guy knows exactly what he's doing. I want to see him finally admit it.
Guy's funny as hell, too. He's so SERIOUS, and underneath that "oh yes thats right i think thats very nice *blue smilie* " surface, he has this incredible amount of contempt for everyone around him.
Like, look at this (we were talking about Boo)
LOL
And then theres Boo. I would still love to go to the end with him, both as an ally and friend, and also because last time I was in finals, it was standing next to Boo, and I had nothing to offer the jury. It was a bad game and I wasnt trying very hard to win. I wanted Boo to. But I'd like to have a redo. Him vs me, outlasting 26 mostly active players and both working our asses off for the win. \
Basically, if you didnt get it yet... I just want to make finals. If I have to win a bunch of immunities to get there... yeah, I'll win a bunch of immunities. Thats fine.
If I can beat Benry...
gabielcade (12:01:45 AM): whatever happened to voting with us this week, Earl?
Quayle21 (12:02:51 AM): I changed my mind
gabielcade (12:03:00 AM): why'd you do that?
Quayle21 (12:04:27 AM): Just seemed like it made more sense
gabielcade (12:04:37 AM): why'd it make more sense?
Quayle21 (12:07:05 AM): You and Danielle were obv never going to vote each other
gabielcade (12:36:21 AM): lol how long did it talk you to figure that one?
gabielcade (12:36:32 AM): and sory, didnt see my IM blink
Quayle21 (12:37:54 AM): About half a day when I was way back on Tiberius and np
gabielcade (12:38:23 AM): lol and you were still seriously NOT going to vote her out now?
gabielcade (12:38:31 AM): knowing that?
So, I'm alone now. Boo isn't as pissed off as he was acting yesterday, though obviously we've not going to lovingly dance to the f2 together anymore. I'm fine with that, really. As far as this game goes I don't care about that broken alliance... I just don't want him mad at me when this ends. I like the guy.
We might still work together, but that'll be strained for the rest of this game at the least.
babyxbearxboo (8:10:07 PM): I don't know if you're invisible, but I just wanted you to know I am mad, but I respect you for sticking to your word...i'd more than likely would do the same thing. I am mad at the fact you could possibly be throwing your game away just because of your word. But i'm sure you have it figured out...but i'm not as mad as i let off... I just wanted you to know that. That was me trying to get you to swing your vote! I had fun, but you'll have to work hard for my vote at finals...and i'm not pissed to where I still don't want to keep a friendship, so after this clean slate! I still 100% trust you!
gabielcade (8:49:25 PM): I was actually out to dinner when you IMed me
gabielcade (8:49:40 PM): but I'm glad you're not as pissed off as I was worried you were
gabielcade (8:49:59 PM): (still wasn't gonna swing my vote though, just make me feel like shit)
babyxbearxboo signed on at 10:57:13 PM
babyxbearxboo (10:57:35 PM): Haha that was kinda the plan! :-P
gabielcade (10:57:51 PM): I know
gabielcade (10:57:54 PM): you jerk :-P
babyxbearxboo (10:58:04 PM): Haha
gabielcade (10:58:12 PM): I was all :-( :-( :-( in my confessional
babyxbearxboo (10:58:18 PM): Hahahahaha
babyxbearxboo (10:58:20 PM): Sorry.....
babyxbearxboo (10:58:24 PM): You're a strong man!
gabielcade (10:58:42 PM): thanks
babyxbearxboo (10:58:46 PM): :-P
gabielcade (10:59:39 PM): oh well, I'm just glad you're not royally pissed off and going to hold a grudge
babyxbearxboo (10:59:53 PM): Haha well that is yet to be seen....
gabielcade (11:00:05 PM): :\
babyxbearxboo (11:01:19 PM): I mean now we're in a sticky situation...I understand why you did what you did, and I don't hold it against you at all in the thread and I still completely trust you, but the fact that I am still in this game changes things....
babyxbearxboo (11:01:28 PM): After receiving your vote....
gabielcade (11:01:31 PM): Yeah I know
babyxbearxboo (11:01:34 PM): I'm just not sure where I'm headed yet...
babyxbearxboo (11:01:57 PM): I mean I know you didn't expect it either, but it's going to make decisions a bit tougher....
gabielcade (11:02:15 PM): well Danielle's gone, if you're not willing to be with me, which I totally get, I got nothin
babyxbearxboo (11:02:48 PM): I know....at this point in the game it's no longer about me and you...I'm not against you, but I have to play for myself now....
gabielcade (11:02:56 PM): I know
babyxbearxboo (11:03:19 PM): So I have to do what's best even if it means voting you....but we still have immunity....depending on who wins....I haven't made up my mind...
babyxbearxboo (11:03:31 PM): I really think there needs to be some way to convince Earl that Benry will win....
gabielcade (11:03:44 PM): Because Benry WILL win?
babyxbearxboo (11:04:03 PM): So, hope is not lost for me and you! :-)
babyxbearxboo (11:04:09 PM): But Benry can't win Immunity....
Easier said than done. Benry is a fucking immunity machine. I hate it. I'm sure he's not a smug douche outside the game. We'd possibly get along. But right now.... yeaahh no. I don't like him.

Like, look at this (we were talking about Boo)
Quayle21 (11:11:39 PM): Seems like he makes the finals a lot then when he plays
gabielcade (11:13:05 PM): actually I think those were the only two times
Quayle21 (11:14:14 PM): I think Chase mentioned him making finals in some game once
gabielcade (11:14:36 PM): i dunno, but they were in a BB together
Quayle21 (11:15:05 PM): They didn't get along there from what they both said
Quayle21 (11:15:08 PM): Not that I cared
LOL
And then theres Boo. I would still love to go to the end with him, both as an ally and friend, and also because last time I was in finals, it was standing next to Boo, and I had nothing to offer the jury. It was a bad game and I wasnt trying very hard to win. I wanted Boo to. But I'd like to have a redo. Him vs me, outlasting 26 mostly active players and both working our asses off for the win. \
Basically, if you didnt get it yet... I just want to make finals. If I have to win a bunch of immunities to get there... yeah, I'll win a bunch of immunities. Thats fine.
If I can beat Benry...
